Most of the bags and sheeting were buried under a fair amount of topsoil, and layered around the area surrounding an old burn barrel. I packed up four of the bags I found with a bunch of the other trash. I could only carry those four bags, plus my backpack basket and the rice cooker. Halfway home, I was so exhausted from carrying the bags, I had to set half of the stuff down, go home, drop of the first load and go back for the remaining bags. I had to leave more than half of the stuff I found today in the forest. This was all from only one small area not much wider than my arm span, that is in the same larger area that I ranted about yesterday.
I don't think I can go back to the same spot tomorrow. It is too depressing. I know it will still be waiting there for me next week!
The only silver lining to this mega-dump site, is that I do get an adrenaline rush from finding and removing so much garbage at one time from my island home.
